(原标题:CBN丨Over 200 A-share listed firms plan to give cash dividends in Q3)

Hi everyone. I’m Stephanie LI.

Coming up on today’s program

  • More than 200 Chinese A-Share companies announce Q3 cash dividends, boosted by capital market support policy;
  • China adds two public holidays starting next year.

Here’s what you need to know about China in the past 24 hours

In a significant development for China's stock market, more than 200 A-share companies had announced cash dividend plans for the third quarter as of Monday, as policies to support the healthy development of the capital market take effect.

As of Monday, 219 listed companies had disclosed cash dividend proposals, with a combined total of 31.18 billion yuan earmarked for distribution, data from financial information service provider Wind.

Compared with previous years, this year's increase in both the number and frequency of dividends represents a notable shift within the A-share market. In the third quarter, the number of companies declaring dividends hit a multi-year high.

As of October 31, the number of listed companies announcing cash dividend plans in their third-quarter reports was up 273 percent year-on-year. The total expected dividend amount surged 72 percent, with five companies planning to distribute more than 1 billion yuan, according to the China Association for Public Companies.

In April, China's State Council, the cabinet, released a guideline on strengthening regulation, forestalling risks and promoting the high-quality development of the capital market.

It urged tighter regulation of cash dividend payments by listed firms. Incentives will be increased for companies with strong dividend performances, and various strategies will be employed to boost dividend yields. Efforts will focus on enhancing the stability, sustainability and predictability of dividends, and promoting multiple dividend distributions within a year, according to the guideline.

Listed companies' increased enthusiasm for dividends is primarily driven by the active encouragement of regulators. Companies with higher dividend levels tend to attract more investors, and this market feedback encourages those companies to enhance their dividend payouts, experts noted.


  • China will add two days to public holidays starting from Jan 1 next year, according to the State Council yesterday. The Spring Festival holiday will extend to four days, now including Chinese New Year's Eve, while the May Day holiday will increase to two days, adding May 2.
  • The European Union and China will continue their negotiations this week seeking an alternative to the imposition of extra tariffs on electric vehicles, on the heels of the talks earlier this month in Beijing, which yielded some progress, according to the European Commission, the bloc's executive arm.
